A 44-year-old woman in Virginia is accused of killing her 90-year-old father, allegedly shooting him in the head before calling 911 and confessing to the emergency dispatcher, saying that she killed him "on purpose." Jennifer Mulligan is now facing first-degree murder and gun charges in the slaying of Woodward McClure earlier this year.
According to a news release from the Virginia Beach Police Department, officers responded to a 911 call at about 11:11 a.m. on May 7 reporting a shooting at a residence in the 500 block of Rodney Lane, about 100 miles southeast of Richmond. Upon arriving at the scene, first responders said they located an adult male, later identified as McClure, with a gunshot wound to the head inside the home. Emergency medical personnel pronounced him dead at the scene.
